Pou Chong founder , Mr. Lee Shih Chuan was a third generation Chinese Indian born and bought up in Kolkata. His grandfather and father were herbal doctors. In 1958, he established Pou Chong with a humble beginning. He took over an old sauce factory in Tangra, Kolkata, and started making the special sauces with Chinese herbs to the many Chinese Indians living in Kolkata Chinatown. Slowly he started mixing Indian herbs with the Chinese and blended it to create a unique flavor to suit the people in Kolkata. Thus green chilli sauce was created by him.
In the course of time, many different sauces were introduced. Kolkata’s most popular Kati rolls, Chowmein, Chilli Chicken, etc and the world famous Indian Chinese Hakka cuisine cannot be completely bursting with rich flavours and unique taste without the combination of Pou Chong sauces.
A good sauce with its attractive colour, fragrant flavor and distinctly delicious taste is the soul of any good dish, fit to please a fastidious gourmet’s sense of sight, smell and taste.
A good sauce dramatically transforms a bland, tasteless dish into a spectacularly flavourful flare. So deliciously appetizing that it not only tickle all the taste buds in the tongue of a discerning connoisseur, but its pleasant aroma and distinct flavor satiates even the most fussy and keen food lover.
Pou Chong religiously strives to maintain its goodwill with its tongue tickling, tasty sauces to keep its dedicated fans happy for so many years.
